Get Cozy and Stay Cozy is the theme of the Gallery Shop Reading list this quarter. A great way to relax and get comfortable amid unpredictable winter weather is to curl up with a good book. These titles are all available in the Gallery Shop and are compelling reads for art lovers to enjoy this winter.

Before a global pandemic sent the world into wave after wave of lockdowns, there was a different wave of change rolling across Canada — a unified solidarity that was shutting down business as usual. It was a wave of solidarity with the Wetsu’wet’en communities of Unist’ot’en and Gidimt’en, who were under military occupation in their own territory as they stood in opposition of the Coastal Gas Pipeline. When Wet’suwet’en matriarchs called for the country to stand in solidarity with them, their call was heard from Vancouver to Winnipeg, Tyendinaga to Tkaranto.

Sometimes the projects that we do at the AGGV do not always ‘fit’ within the standard white-cubed gallery spaces you will find in our building on Moss Street. Sometimes our curatorial projects take place in remote communities, deep in the basement archives, in collaboration with other arts institutions, or in this case, within a kind of algorithmic museum!

The theme for this quarter’s reading list is The Passage of Time. Summer passed by rapidly, and now we find ourselves in September, which always marks a time of change.
